Still working on the story for our wedding and honeymoon. In the meantime, here's some photos:

Fall Racing Series
Race #3
Peter puts out the email:
Wednesday night 6:30 PM start at the bridge with two courses, one short and one longer. Boats with a rating above 200 sail to Red 52 (a distance of 4.5 miles). Boats with a sub 200 rating sail to Red 54. We should all finish at roughly the same time(theoretically).
The only takers: Al & Patty on their way back home from a week's sailing trip plan to meet us at the bridge at 6:00. There is rain and a good deal of naysaying. Would they even get there on time? Finally we see the beautiful Westsail pause briefly at the bridge. By the time we hop in the cockpit and begin to back out of the slip, they are in the marina. It is 6:15 and we face the start line alone.
The wind was non-existent and I took many photos.

Fall Racing Series
Wednesday Night Race #2
(forgot camera)Many beautiful moments captured only in my mind.
That blue and white striped tattered headsail fluttering in the slight evening breeze, the moon just beginning to wane rising on the horizon, the pilot boat slowing down to reduce his wake and wave to us.
The captain’s meeting was the setting of the plan—for the boat with the slower rating to go 'round the closer mark, for The Moon to go 'round the further mark and for all of us to meet up at the finish line.
A fun night for all followed by a late night long chat.
